Dear Awesome People

We are truly overwhelmed by the outpouring of support for our peace offering to Red Bull. We have to believe Red Bull has taken notice and for that we thank you. It’s clear from the responses we have received so far that more people are confused by the trademark opposition than any potential brand confusion between Old Ox beer and Red Bull energy drink. The media interest has been amazing and we appreciate thee coverage. But it is the everyday people, whether they have ever tasted an Old Ox brew or not, who are outraged by the trademark bullying going on here. We are deeply grateful for your comments and support.

Stick it up em. There’s Fat Yak, Moo Brew, Mountain Goat, to name just a few creature-themed brewers, Old Ox has absolutely nothing to do with Red Bull.
Watch out http://www.pedders.com.au/ they’ll be after you next.

From Australia: Stand up to the bullies. I’d rather have my body enjoy the benefits from a well crafted brew than the effects of a synthetic “energy drink”. YUK!

Similar thing happened in Aust to a cafe called The Fat Duck when Heston Blumenthal threatened to sue the owner because he had a “Global Brand” and decided to open a Fat Duck restaurant in Melbourne. She had legally obtained the name but because of lack of funds had to change the name and signage at her cost.

It’s sad that lawyers have so much trouble distinguishing between different products, colours and animals, why are they allowed to drag us down to their belligerent level?
